Overall, if one accepts that nature is created and sustained by Jesus Christ, the author explains, then one must conclude that looking at nature is, in fact, the best way to learn about nature.Mon, 01 Aug 2011 09:43:31 -0700Mark NollThe Collapsing Universe in the Biblehttp://biologos.orghttp://biologos.org/resources/essay/the-collapsing-universe-in-the-bible?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication
